I'm just about to order an Akasa Eclipse cos my current case is pap for cooling, and I wanna overclock my cpu some more :) But just wanted to check some things first. I was gonna get some Panaflo L1A 120mm fans, but noticed they have a 38mm depth compared to the 25mm it mentions in the Akasa description. Will they not fit in the eclipse then?

Also do you think the Thermally Advanced Side Panel would be beneficial for me? I don't plan on going sli or anything as I'm not really a pc gamer. But would it increase the ability to overclock my cpu?

I'm also getting the Akasa Fan Controller Pro but I keep reading conflicting information on what type of airflow is best to have - positive/negative. Should I make the intake or exhast fan faster?

Lastly I'll be changing the cpu cooler to a ThermalRight Ultra-120 as in the reviews I've seen it performs better than my current cooler. I've already got a Scythe S-FLEX 1600RPM Ultra Quiet 120mm Fan to use with it. But what would be the best way to postion the Ultra-120 and the Scythe fan to maximise cooling?

Apologies if these are some dumb ass questions but I'm still learning ;)

Cheers in advance

Ok cool, I ended up ordering the thermally advanced side panel for mine as I couldn't wait any longer for some advice :p Also my Pentium D 950 gets quite toasty so hopefully it should keep my temps abit lower.
